“…Socialisation into the AMHP role via educational practices is likely also to have in impact as professional values, principles and paradigms from their education and training impact upon what is considered to be 'right' (Hjelm 2014). The anecdotal national picture of the AMHP workforce in England and Wales is similar to that found by Bogg (forthcoming) in that the social work profession remains the dominate profession.…”

“…Greater emphasis may need to be given to how interactions with others and with social structures (Sugiman et al 2007) impact on the AMHPs world view. The apparent individuality of each of the 20 study participants is perhaps in some ways surprising; as cultures and conventions also arise from shared meaning (Hjelm 2014), although this may have been more evident if we had gathered data from a single geographically located AMHP team rather than across England.…”

Approved Mental Health Professionals and Detention: An Exploration of Professional Differences and Simularities

The enactment of the Mental Health Act (MHA) 2007 introduced the role of the multidisciplinary Approved Mental Health Professional (AMHP) in England and Wales by amending The MHA 1983. The role can now be performed by a range of professionals including a psychologist, an occupational-therapist, a social worker or a mental-health/learning difficulties nurse. This amendment amongst other legal provisions replaced the earlier Approved Social Worker role. This is an exploratory qualitative research that aimed to identify if the decision-making relating to management and assessment of risk varied according to the professional background of the AMHP. The decision-making of 10 social work and 10 nursing AMHPs were examined through the use of an experimental vignette containing audiovisual and written materials in order for participants to reach a decision about whether or not to detain. Proposed detention rates between social work and nurse AMHPs were identical although variation was found across the whole sample in terms of the risks that were identified in the vignette. The paper concludes by arguing that these results suggest that differences in the way AMHPs reach decisions may well relate to a variety of individual differences rather than reflecting initial professional identity and training as so often argued in the literature.

“…The research paradigm lies within the epistemological perspective of social constructivism (Hjelm, 2014; Piaget, 1967), where a view of reality is constructed from the subjective views of the cultural participants. Within this, the conceptual framework of structure and agency (Barker, 2003; Biesta & Tedder, 2006) was used in the data analysis and coding processes.…”

An analysis of undergraduate motivations, perceptions of value and concerns in pursuing higher popular music performance education

The popular music performance undergraduate degree is a growing area within UK higher education. These courses carry a vocational emphasis and are popular with students looking to establish professional performing careers. As such, they are often marketed as an intermediary step towards this aspiration but, despite their popularity, there has been little critical review into their effectiveness. This article, based on doctoral research conducted by the author, draws on semi-structured interviews conducted with 12 second- and third-year undergraduates studying popular music performance-based courses. The article presents data and analysis concerning the motivations for study, perceptions of vocational value and the concerns around establishing professional careers. Concerns across four key areas are identified: (a) issues of negative public perception; (b) problematic conceptions of the popular music industries (PMI); (c) the value of practical experience over and above qualifications; and (d) negative narratives concerning developments in digital technologies and their effect on career opportunities. Implications from the article include the need for higher education providers (HEPs) to challenge students’ misconceptions concerning professional careers in the new popular music industries.

“…Важно је напоменути да је поред утицаја књиге СКР, могуће говорити и о утицају самог термина "социјална конструкција" као нечега што Кноблаух и Вилке називају заједничким именитељем (Knoblauch and Wilke 2016). Иако Бергер и Лукман нису утемељили школу или парадигму "социјалне конструкције", та синтагма је "нашла свој пут" и утемељење у социјалном конструкционизму као интелектуалном и академском покрету који се у друштвеним наукама накнадно јавио (Burr 1996;Ber 2001;Gergen 1985;Hjelm 2014;Holstein and Gubrium 2008;Marinković 2003;Stojnov 2001) и то свакако под утицајем идеја у СКР. Према мишљењу Кноблауха и Вилкеа (Knoblauch and Wilke 2016, 62), управо је успех социјалног конструкционизма показатељ амбивалентне рецепције саме књиге и различите употребе синтагме "социјална конструкција".…”
